<p>[QUOTE=&quot;houston_ray, post: 108044, member: 1943&quot;]Hello all!</p><p><br /></p><p>Recently I acquired an ANACS slabbed AU53 1934-S Peace dollar.&nbsp; A little bit of uneven toning on the reverse, but overall an excellent original no-problem and uncleaned coin.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Question:</p><p><br /></p><p>When I review recent sales of this date on Heritage Coins and other benchmarks, it appears that 1) this coin fetches a considerable premium in the same grade if graded by PCGS or NGC, and 2) this Peace dollar really ramps up in value in AU over just a couple points.</p><p><br /></p><p>Do you think it would be worthwhile to try to send this ANACS coin out to NGC or PCGS and try for an &quot;no lower than AU53&quot; cross-grade?&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Do you think that the current perception about PCGS and NCG versus ANACS is just euphoria on the part of the coin collecting community, or a long-term phenomenon?</p><p><br /></p><p>Frankly, I believe that ANACS does a pretty good job of grading.&nbsp; The coin&#039;s a beauty and I believe ANACS did a fair job for the grade.&nbsp; Then at the same time, my understanding is that while NGC and PCGS will cross-grade, they tend to be extra tough on it.</p><p><br /></p><p>Kind Regards</p><p>Houston_Ray[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
